From: Tijeras, New Mexico, 7,000ft up

Bought a 14cm exhaust housing to replace the 16cm, had it ceramic coated and put it on today, in a snowstorm... was 60 something yesterday, snow today! Anyway the 14cm fattened up my midrange without hurting the top end at all. In fact I can run it up to 110mpg and the EGR temps don't go over 900 (post turbo) which is a big change. The 14cm increased the drive pressure needed to drive my new 62mm/86mm 7 blade compressor wheel. Now I need to hook up the water/meth injectors.

Not today, but I fixed all my issues with my windshield wipers. They worked perfect, except that little plastic thingy that makes the water spray on the windshield? That crumbled into pieces in my finger from barely touching it! Anyone know what those are called and if I can order one? Also, speaker wires came out of something, bass woofer stopped working, so going through that next. Really want to find second gen seats so I can do that mod next

I don't remember asking this. I sprayed the hot side with Glacier Black air dry Cerakote. good to 1600* Compressor I used a clear with red pigment that came out almost pink. Good to 325-350* IIRC.



Yep, it has runs. I put it on thick and don't care
